Best experience I had in India!
I have lived and traveled in India for over a year now and my experience with Calcutta Walks was easily one of the most amazing I have had. Initially I was hesitant to partake in a walking tour but I am so glad I let my friend talk me into it.
The home stay Calcutta Walks arranged for us was wonderful, the house gorgeous and the family unbelievably friendly. The walks were fascinating and allowed us an opportunity to experience Calcutta in a way that would have been totally impossible without them. Our adventurous guide took us to behind the scenes places (at times, literally people’s backyards) to show us a beautiful tree or an important historical location. Introducing us to local figures to hear the stories from their mouths or taking us to drink the best tea in Calcutta, the employees of Calcutta walks clearly love their city. And it is this love and passion for sharing their city, that make Calcutta Walks such a memorable and wonderful experience. I highly recommend anyone who wants to get off the beaten track and see India from a different perspective to take a walk with Calcutta Walks.
